how about "FREEMEM;KB"

Well that's going to complicate it even more for skins that are already out there that use the KB in the tip field.

Better to add extra rather than move existing, less likely to break something

i just looked at code, its alot of change to do anything

there are more then i thought that use TIP as format

i would have to check for misuse of the tip, and thats hard if u want a custom format
(course i bet no one ever did use a custom format for these)

if we nixed the custom format (which is done using the VBformat command)
then we can check for the specific format options
and safely reject ones like "RIGHT", "LEFT"

the code that draws the skin, does not know how to handle "fmt||position"
that one is easier to implement...

i just need to think this out

initally i do like the TIP "fmt||pos"

doing more research

TIP is already set up for a split

the order is

"POSITION||xxxxx"

so i can do it that second item is formatting...

i think thats the plan

example
"FREEMEM","CENTER||KB"

Which is basically what I said 5 posts ago.


Jeez, we actually agree on something, hold the presses.

yep.. but

it looks like i cant do it that way
because we allow mutiple labels in a label example

"FREEMEM||=kb ||ALLMEM||=MB", "kb||||mb"

looks spooky on that tip, but it makes sense

which is actually broken right now, the format wont be right

then there is switching labels >>

so... the simplest is to add new labels
or the ; in the label

im exploring adding a new field to the label definition

Geez, you had to go ruin it.

I think if people are going to have multiple labels where there is an extra formatting option then they really need to use two separate labels or stick the values in a variable.


There is only so much you can allow before you start compromising the systems integrity.

ok, its complete

L,474,100,300,27,212,208,200,16,"Arial:B","FREEMEM ||=kb ||MBM1","LEFT","kb||||c2f"

an additional field is now there...
a complex label that above works

the additional field is optional of course... u could still do it the old way...without any positional info also multiple formats didnt work before

basicly use "TIP" for positioning, and the new "FMT" field for formatting

more examples:

L,474,75,300,27,212,208,200,16,"Arial:B","FREEMEM| |=kb ||FREEMEM||=kb","LEFT","kb"
both will show in kb

L,474,100,300,27,212,208,200,16,"Arial:B","FREEMEM ||=mb ||FREEMEM||=kb","LEFT","||||kb"

1st one will show in mb, since thats the default format, and second in kb

I blue,

I have just tested foobar2000 with your plugin and the command
"NAVPAUSE" and "NAVRESUME":

"NAVPAUSE","RRVolRamper_Dn;75;30||Wait;2"
"NAVRESUME","RRVolRamper_Up;100;30

These commands run well with winamp and wmp but not foobar2000 .

I don't know where is the probleme .

Do you have an idea ?

Thanks

Not w/o checking first.
